Intriguing is the word that I describe for this book. Mysterious, suspense and thrillers are the strongest elements for thriller books. Too bad that Mary An's character is not broaden enough adn just typical sexy woman. Thank you for the review.

This sounds exciting; I love books where the characters have to piece together the truth. I wonder if Tim's memories start to come back in fragments or if part of his memory is erased completely. Looking forward to reading this page-turner! Thanks for the lovely review!

Thank you for the nice review. I do read and reviewed this book for OBC, but I gave it four stars. As far as Marianne’s character goes what I read the whole book I understood why her character was the way she was. I won’t say as I don’t want to spoil it but I found Marianne to be a little bit unlikable but not in the way you said. Thanks for the great review !

It really sounds like the kind of book with a lot of twists and turns. And it seems like it would have you on the edge of your seat! I really hope to have the opportunity to read it!

It sounds like the thriller and suspense with twists, turns, and red flags are all wonderfully written. It is too bad about the explicit sex scenes and R-rated profanity. Your review makes me wonder if Tim will remember his lost memories and if Mary Ann was somehow involved in the accident that Tim's wife lost her life.

Good review. I’m intrigued to read this, espionage and mystery are right up my alley. I’m interested to see how the author portrays MaryAnn. I wonder how MayAnn is involved with the people from he past showing up in his life.

This is an amazing action thriller novel full of espionage, romance, the effects of amnesia, and romance. The book is free on Kindle Unlimited and has a well-written OnlineBookClub review. I rated the book 3 out of 4 stars. Congrats @Jeff60706264 on the BOTD selection.

Well, even if it wasn't believable, I would still read it. I'm a great fan of thriller and this looks like a nice one. Thanks for the review

Although I found the plot interesting, the aspect of this book being a thriller isn't quite my cup of tea. I also don't go in for books with R rated profanity, so will have to pass on this one. Thanks for the informative review!

I love suspense so maybe I'll give this one a try, but I can't stand poorly written women.

It sounds like there is a lot for someone to like about this book. Will he get his memories back and remember his wife? Is there more to Mary Ann then just a love interest?

The reviews of the book are nothing but motivating to read the book. They promise a tale that you will be unable to put down till the last page. I think I might look into it too. Thank you for your thorough and honest review.
